Rick Neuheisel just said he has it on good authority that LSU has offered Saban 4-years for $100M. I hadn’t heard that.

Saban is the GOAT but is he chomping at the bit to get back in college coaching when the reasons he left (portal/ NIL) are progressively getting worse?

He doesn’t have anything to prove at this point. Think he’s happy just being a TV personality

He hated NIL but I think he understands how to do it now (basically just spend a lot of money)

He’s been very vocal within the last week about how the best jobs are the ones spending the most money

If LSU tells him they are committed to spend more than anyone else (I’ve been seeing $30m rumors) then maybe he considers it

Well I did win 10 straight National Championships with Tulane playing NCAA so Saban can suck it.

Do you honestly think that Nick will put his Alabama legacy at risk to lead a rescue mission to save an Alabama rival? Plus the Guy is over 70 yo

right. i am saying same thing. gumps would have a jonestown 2 if this happens and they would tear down his saban statue as if it were saddam hussein! they will also rename saban field to stallings field or some shite.

but my GAWD it would be glorious to witness the fukishima type meltdown in gumptard land.

Yes. I don't think he gives a shite about optics. He's totally process driven.

You know, I think it’s possible Saban dislikes Kelly enough on a personal level to consider taking the job.

Just to rub his face in it, that he wasn’t able to win here.

You're thinking of how LSU fans acted when he came to Tuscaloosa. As a Bama fan, I would think it's kinda funny & really weird. Honestly, it would be sad if he didn't win there. Kinda like Jordan with the Washington Wizards or Montana with the Chiefs. Strange to say, but I would be rooting for him so he doesn't tarnish his legacy by trying to rekindle some kind of magic he had over 20 years ago.

None of this affects his legacy at Alabama

I keep seeing this idea. I’m sure Saban could do the job but he’s never been an administrator. Has he ever said he’d like to run a whole athletic program?

Fair point. Frankly I doubt it will ever happen. Doubt he would come back to coach our team as well. Hoping for Kiffin if not

People just see what legendary Coach Skip Bertman did and think ok well maybe legendary Coach Saban can do that too!

Saban may be the only one left standing when this is all over. Every time the LSU job becomes available it almost guarantees the top candidates are getting healthy contract extensions

I think it’s insinuated when considering the big picture. Saban smashed Kelly a few times in the playoffs, Kelly leaves me for LSU to ‘win titles and beat Saban’ kind of implies he can do what Saban did if he just had the same chances.

Actually beats Saban year 1, Saban retires.

I’d bet anything that Saban can’t stand him and enjoyed watching him crash and burn at LSU
